Overview

  • Xiaomi’s 15T and 15T Pro went global with European pricing and preorders, pairing Leica‑tuned triple cameras with a 6.83-inch 144Hz AMOLED, Dimensity chipsets, and 5,500mAh batteries.
  • The 15T Pro features MediaTek’s Dimensity 9400+, 90W wired and 50W wireless charging, and starts around €799 in Europe, though reviewers note it ships on HyperOS 2 based on Android 15 with no update timetable.
  • In China, Xiaomi announced the 17, 17 Pro, and 17 Pro Max powered by Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, highlighting performance gains and Leica imaging across all three models.
  • The 17 Pro and Pro Max add a 2.66-inch rear OLED around the camera island for viewfinder, widgets, and media controls, while batteries range from 6,300mAh (Pro) to 7,500mAh (Pro Max) with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging.
  • China pricing starts at CNY 4,499 for the 17 with sales beginning September 27, Xiaomi is skipping the “16” naming to align with Apple’s numbering, and global plans for the 17 lineup remain unannounced.
